Yep, they have a patio, walk-up bar, and indoor dining. [thumbsup] That area is shaping up to be a pretty cool place to hang out. 8)
I'll be there.
I asked Jason, Tommy, Cory and Jim to block that Thursday for dinner. I'll call Bill too and maybe Steve if he is back in town. Good to see RichD can make it.

Dallas or anything ;D
"Life is too short to live in Dallas" so says the T shirt from Railhead BBQ in Fort Worth. [thumbsup]

my spousal unit reminded me it was the 2nd thurs of the month and i have "right from the start" at work. she asked which shirt and tie i was gonna wear so she could take it to the cleaners. i'd prefer none but got to that day. be there until around 9p feel free to come by and watch me give a speech on how we have parts designed specifically for your car and the advantages that it provides compared to "down the road" motors.
My wife and I would like to attend. She even rides her own monster [moto] [thumbsup]

Sorry to hear you can't make it, Chris. :-\
I scoped the place out last night, and there is room for bikes on either side of the entrance/patio area. When you enter the plaza area off 7th, go between the "towers," and it is about halfway through on the right.

Yep, Cher gave me a great deal on the 620's Rizomas. Bryant helped me get them installed and I've been loving them ever since.
I don't know if I'll be able to make it this Thursday, but if I do you're definitely welcome to go for a test ride. [moto]
Bonnie and I will be there.
I'll try and make it out there, but it'll be a game time decision
Hey can anyone get in touch with Haywire to let him know about this dinner?

Jason said that he would go but has not posted to confirm. I hope he remembers the dinner. Can anyone give him a shout? RichD?

Yesterday (while we were trying to get a cranky pasteurizer to work) he mentioned he was up for this...
I think Gwen is going to make it too. (95%)
She found this group to be an entertaining cross-section of peoples, I think.

It's between buildings and somewhat in the shade. I guess if it is too uncomfortable, we can take it inside.

whoops scratch that...that's the original size...you can just resize it up though and it'll look alright.

Well, heading out now...see you folks at Boomer J's. [moto]
I'll be leaving from work directly and I hope to be up there by 645 or so, just keep an eye out for me [thumbsup]
I have to wait and lock up today
Was that awesome or what!
[thumbsup]
my loft is turning a corner on the road to clean...so there's nothing you can say to make me regret not making this!!
(unless b00bies are involved....they're not, right?)
Just got home. Man that superslab ride was boring...
Fun stuff tonight, it was great to meet some new people and catch up with the usual suspects. Can't wait for the next get together, oh wait that's tomorrow [laugh]
i'll be there early...drowning my sorrows and whatnot in free peanuts.
We're still at Fred's.
Just got our 2nd [drink] [thumbsup]
Who's still out?
Ronr, ***, & your humble servant, L'Smart
Fellow LSDers, that was Much-O Fun-O [thumbsup]
Very nice to meet new peeps, SOs, & always a pleasure to see the usual suspects...
Fun place, but you shoulda gone to Fred's with us.
Cioa
Oh, BTW, I went 35 miles after the "no gas" light came on just as I was leaving Cowtown- made it all the way to the Old Monk [thumbsup]
That was quite a turn out. Some recent additions to the group and some very new faces. It was great to hang out with everyone. Everywhere we had really nice bikes. We even had a hot sh1t big black R1. ;D
Hey, I'd forgotten how good it was to have a beer to wind down the day. But I can't get used to it though. I'd hate to do rehab again. [roll]
Thanks to everyone who came! See y'all in two weeks, the 24th (our next Westside Thursday dinner), place TBD. Feel free to make a suggestion. And no, it has to be on or west of 360 (easties are always welcome).

Had a great time last night. I guess that we missed the part about Freds [bang]
it's all of you guys that missed out...because i spent the night throwing stuff away in my apartment... so there.
incidentally... does anyone need "a bunch of crap"... PM me for details... (note: "crap" includes but is not limited in any way to: random bits from monsters and a supersport, new and used tires, various computer parts such as RAM, CPU, and video card, as well as clothes that you may very well be seeing on hobos walking around downtown dallas in the near future)
I thought you guys were bringing me?? What no pics of me. It looks like it was a great turnout! Wish I was there. :'(
Was Ron waiting in line for his turn to get a smooch from CJ or RichD in that pic??? [laugh] What, you have to wait for that now??

Hey Alan,
how you doing? I left the house without your "floating head" pic and realized too late to go back for it. Sorry man, my bad but you'll "be there" next time. ;D I should have brought the ST to give that picture of the bikes a little yellow.

More good times at a westies dinner night. That was a huge turn out. Nice place to hang out and all the cool kids rode their scooters. The rest of us got there any way we could.
Fred's was good, once we navigated around all the construction. Coldass beer and a really good Jimmy Page sounding guitar player. Got kicked out of there and headed to the Monk where they stay open a wee bit later.
i think you got some of those. weirdly enough i was cleaning up and found the lanyard strap thing for the canon. i'll try to remember to bring that along the next time i see you.
Bonnie and I had a great time last night! (oh.... and the dinner went well too [thumbsup]) )
Scott - Thank you so much for showing me just how unhappy a man could be because he doesn't own a 1098 [bang]
But serious, Bonnie and I really enjoyed hanging out with you all and hope to do it again soon!
